Full Description

The 2016 Gold American Eagle is the 30th in the ever popular gold bullion coin series released by the United States Mint. Comprised of one full troy ounce of 22-karat gold, and featuring one of the most iconic numismatic designs minted: the American Gold Eagle is "the" bullion coin to own.

First released in 1986, the Gold and Silver American Eagle bullion coin programs became a popular option for investors and collectors of precious metals and coins. The design chosen to be featured on the Gold American Eagles was the Augustus Saint Gaudens Double Eagle design first minted in 1907, and is considered to be the most beautiful design minted by our government.

The Obverse

Shown on the front of the 2016 1 Oz. Gold American Eagle is the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle design, with the only changes made being the added stars, and the change in date. Lady Liberty is depicted in the foreground of the capital and is seen holding a torch upwards, with an olive branch in her left hand as her dress and hair billow majestically around her figure. Originally the date appeared in Roman numerals, but was switched to the Arabic system shortly after. Similar to history, the first Gold Eagles featured the date in Roman Numerals, and was changed in 1992.

The Reverse

On the back of the coin is a modern design completed by Miley Busiek in 1986 and features a Bald Eagle flying towards a nest with a mother eagle and hatchling, clutching an olive branch. Inscribed below are the denomination, weight and purity of the coin. The Gold American Eagle's are guaranteed by the U.S. government for their purity and weight.

I bought 4 of these, one each for my grandchildren to have as keepsakes that will increase in value over time. They came quickly and were packaged well!

Better than expected

I just received the order today and everything was better than expected. Your photos are definitely a great selling point. Thanks.

Quality and accurate descriptions

by Cynthia Clark, Texas

The main reason I shop from your website is your quality and accurate descriptions of your items before I purchase them. I’ve never returned a coin back to you for that reason. Also, your pricing is very competitive, and the internet department is always very professional and friendly when I call in to place an order.

Dear Shannon

You are doing a great job! Along with a great price on the 1 oz Gold Eagles, they also offered me some really sound suggestion on coin collecting. I’d recommend them to anyone starting with coin collecting.

Good experience

by David J. Andrews

A pleasant buying experience and very competitive pricing. The Gold American Eagle Coin and the Gold Buffalo I received were both in excellent state. And I also managed to save a few extra dollars.
